Sony PRS-300 has my dollar as a first device, mostly because of Calibre support. I might get a Kindle later, but by then, other models might have pegged the featureset that makes it so attractive, without being tied to the cloud.

The Sony is a nice compact eReader, cheap ($119) for a true e-ink device, 512MB of onboard memory lets me store all I really need to read at a given moment, and with Calibre (an iTunes-like open source eBook manager), I can swap out content simply by plugging in my USB cable to my PC when I recharge the book's battery. Just make sure to not install the Sony library/store software stored on the internal flash-RAM drive that autoruns when you first plug in the reader.
Here are some perks of Calibre:
- All books are added to my library locally on my PC. I can back this library up to external media for easy restoration or storage on multiple PCs.
- eBook content can be imported in almost any format, and Calibre can convert them to known compatible formats for your eReader of choice, DRM-free.
- News content can be downloaded automagically by Calibre, daily, from all kinds of sources (with more being added with every version!).
- My content is managed by ME.
- Calibre has an integrated reader for use on the host PC directly, compatible with all the formats it supports.

Sure I don't have all that fancy 3G internet access/online library stuff through the reader, but I (as well as most other people) have a laptop for that. If I need new reading material, I'll just tether my laptop, download what I want, and sync it over to my reader for later.

I'm glad I started out on the right path, for once.

Yeah, and PCs that run hospital networks, digital radiology equipment, and feedback-based physical therapy equipment, among many other things, can be used to play Modern Warfare and World of Warcraft. Does that mean that PCs are just toys and can never be used for "real" treatment and therapy purposes? No.

If the MD recommended a Wii, then he almost certainly recommended the Wii game and accompanying hardware for the appropriate therapy, as well as some sort of a plan (play WiiFIT yoga level 1 for 30 mins a day, or something), then THAT should certainly be covered by WorkComp.

I'd never expect a copy of Twilight Princess or NewSMB to be covered, but if he wants to buy it himself, who cares?
(Then again, all this is based on the supposition of Common Sense, and when has that ever been prevalent in a Government setting?)

I'm not sure that China knows what they're messing with. If they keep poking Google's assets, the GoogCloud could very well go SkyNet on their asses.

That's Toro, not Torino.

As has been said to me before, "You do good, and nobody remembers. You do bad, and nobody forgets." It all comes down to the face that we are expected by civilized society to act... Well... civil. Being a good citizen and a decent person is to be expected, but anything outside of that norm puts a stamp on you for all eternity.

"Would you like to know more?..."

And under a Windows Terminal Server environment, using the "Add Program" feature is a requirement for any application that doesn't use a Windows Installer or InstallShield shell to trip the server into Installation Mode.

At least with Windows, I almost never have to use the term "compile," and if it does, it doesn't bother me about it.

"Blissfully ignorant since Windows 3.1, March 1992."

P.S. Yes, I used DOS... When I was 8 and my brain was still play-doh, and I'm happy I'll never have to write another config.sys file again!

Why would I (as a carrier) want to spend a boatload of money on a big screen tv, when i can put up a poster with a Tag on it that I got made at Kinkos? It not only uses YOUR display device, but you can bookmark the site and save it for other times that you're not within physical proximity of the Tag. For travel schedules, this is quite nice, and can keep the ammount of displays for non-Tag equipped travelers to a minimum. You don't have to go tromping around the terminal looking for screens. Just pull it up on the mobile.

It's probably just an issue within the cooked ROM. I'm actually running the the official WM6.1 ROM from HTC (bloatware removed) and it worked just fine.
